Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial

 14:27-31 — Mt 26:31-35

  “You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written:
  “‘I will strike the shepherd,
 and the sheep will be scattered.’
     But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”
    Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.”
    “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times.”
    But Peter insisted emphatically, “Even if I have to die with you,  I will never disown you.” And all the others said the same.

Ways of a Fool - He

. Has no foresight.

Matthew 7:26 
But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.

. Is ignorant.

1 Peter 2:15 
For it is God’s will  that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people.

Works of the Holy Spirit

. Bring Conviction – John 16:8
When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment:

. Giving Gifts – 1 Corinthians 12:11
All these are the work of one and the same Spirit,  and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

. Testifies about Christ – John 15:26
When the Advocate  comes, whom I will send to you from the Father —the Spirit of truth  who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me.
